        People are loving it. But now the deal is that I’m almost to the end of your books. I’m going to start on Maddie’s next, and some of Char’s recommendations. AND I can’t WAIT for RUC to get finished so your next masterpieces will get finished. 🙂

    OK, I’m half way through and can say it’s a weekend-ruiner. Meaning, I had plans to be productive, now I’m reading.

    Nice one, Dianne. She recommended it for mature readers, though. I’m not very mature, but wonder if I dare? 😉
